Step 2

Permitting & Safety

We coordinate with both the installer and local authorities to secure all necessary permits, certifications, and safety protocols before beginning any work on your property. Your peace of mind is our priority.

Step 3

Site Preparation

Little Dipper pools are placed on a pre-engineered concrete slab, custom-poured to match the site's soil type. For in-ground or semi-recessed pools, additional excavation and soil removal may be required.

Step 4

Crane Rental for Installation

A crane is necessary to lift the pool from the delivery truck and position it onto the concrete base slab. Costs for crane hire vary based on property access, location, and installation complexity. We offer a complimentary site assessment and quote to determine your specific needs.

Step 5

Plumbing & Electrical

Every Little Dipper comes with standard primary plumbing fixtures and electrical hook-ups. Depending on your selected equipment, a professional pool builder or plumber will need to handle the plumbing. Likewise, a qualified electrician is required to complete the earthed electrical connections.

Step 6

Backfill Process

For in-ground or semi-recessed installations, the area around the footing will need to be backfilled with granular material. This ensures proper drainage away from the footings.

Step 7

Fill & Enjoy

After your pool is installed and inspected, it’s time to fill it and balance the chemicals. Then, the fun begins—invite your friends and enjoy your Little Dipper pool!
